Redskins Locker Room

They do review how the Ref's call games and the ones that do a better jod of making the calls or not making the calls gat to ref the bigger games. Does anyone know how often refs get fired or disciplined for bad play calling or is that an NFL secret.

I don't think it is policy to make that information public except in extreme cases like the initial tuck rule game where the ref made the correct ruling and they backed him up. Basically only in situations where they need to publically support a call or apologize for public relations reasons.

Where was our apology for miscalling Alstott's 2 point conversion in the TB game?

Good question. Or last year's Packers game. Or the fumble by Jordan on the goal line in the Raider's game. Or the botched off side call in the in the TB game. Of the botched calls in Philly last year. Just to name a few. We have had quite a number of calls that had big negative impacts against us in the last two years. It's probably because we are losing so many close games so these missed calls get magnified to us but it seems like we have a hex or something on us when it comes to refs. It is tiresome.

They apparently don't feel the need to offer apologies to the Skins and their fans. Makes you wonder why.

Don't forget the bad forced-out call against us in the TB game!

It really does - I picked the Alstott call because there is no disputing that it cost us the game. However, you are right that we just don't seem to get any respect from the league.

[conspiracytheory]Perhaps the league resents Snyder's financial success with the Skins?[/conspiracytheory]

The pencil-necked geek of a referee yesterday made some really bad calls. The 15 yard penalty on Santana was one. The 15 yard personal foul facemask on Sean Taylor was another. The holding call on Samuels was another BS call. Just to name a few.

Yeah I dont have a huge problem with it...its one thing to complain to the ref, but Santana was pretty overheated. All in all I think not a huge deal. And at least he didnt get a personal foul for "An unnatural act not common to the game" which is certainly my all time favorite penalty call!

in the chat room before the flag was thrown i said moss shut the hell up and right then the ref threw a flag. he deserved it, i am very homertastic and i do think he deserved that penalty. He went absolutly insane, justified it may have been but damn. He is lucky it didn't cost us the FG or i would be completely pissed at him. He could get a lot done by telling the ref look. He wasn't gonna change anything because this isn't basketball. The refs don't say well i messed up here so i will help them out there as they do in the NBA. He accomplished nothing but making an ass out of himself. I am glad he really cares so much but he should have shut his mouth
